Embodiment Construction

[0019]The invention generally relates to an Associative Object Model (AOM) for presenting composite entity information and, more particularly, to a system and method of linking various data of an entity from isolated databases in a distributed enterprise and presenting composite information on the entity to systems within the distributed enterprise. An entity can be one or more entities and hence contain one or more objects. In implementing the system and method of the invention, information of the entity can be linked in an AOM such that a change to the entity by any system within the enterprise propagates through the AOM by virtue of reference to the point of change. In this manner, all systems within the enterprise that have subscribed to the entity will instantly be able to observe the change to the entity in a highly normalized fashion such that no redundant actions or data is required to fully realize a change in the entity. This eliminates redundant data within the entire ent...

Abstract

An associative object model for presenting composite entity information is provided. More particularly, a system and method of linking various data related to an entity from isolated databases in a distributed enterprise is provided. The system and method presents composite information on the entity to different systems within the distributed enterprise. The method includes propagating a change of data of a first entity type to one or more related or associated entity types in an active associative object model (AOM) accessible by a subscribing system and a publishing system in an enterprise.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]The invention relates to an associative object model for presenting composite entity information and, more particularly, to a system and method of linking various data related to an entity from isolated databases in a distributed enterprise and presenting composite information on the entity to different systems within the distributed enterprise.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]An enterprise system includes many different subscribing and publishing systems, each having access to their own databases. In traditional publish / subscribe mechanisms, publishers can assign one or more topics to a message and each subscriber to that topic receives the message.[0003]It is known that subscribers which can readily avail information from existing services of publishers in the enterprise are the best serviced; whereas, subscribers that require receiving information from existing services in order to compute their end information have an overhead as they resort to tradit...
